book chapters
Numbered story segments
Book chapters are the major divisions of a book, typically numbered and titled, that organize content into discrete sections.
Each chapter usually covers a distinct topic, time period, or narrative segment.
In novels, chapters create natural reading breaks and control pacing.
In nonfiction, they separate subjects or arguments: The book chapters on nutrition were more useful than those on exercise.
